Financial contributions and assistance

There are some costs associated with going to school that you may find it helpful to plan and budget for.

Costs to consider include:

  • uniforms

  • school books and equipment

  • excursions

  • co-curricular activities.

Voluntary school contributions

Like all NSW public schools, we can request contributions to enhance our educational and sporting programs including elective subjects. School contributions help provide additional educational resources for the benefit of students. Payment is voluntary.

For more information, visit the Voluntary School Contribution policy.

Subject contribution fees

Students who select electives may incur a subject contribution fee on top of their general contribution fees. Year 7 and 8 students are charged a flat $50 per student. Years 9 - 12 students are charged depending on their electives. These costs cover the materials used by the students. 

Financial assistance

If you are unable to pay school contributions because of financial hardship, you may be eligible for assistance from the school.

Our principal will ensure no student or family suffers any discrimination or embarrassment over the inability to pay school contributions.

Parents/carers who wish to receive financial assistance are required to complete a form giving brief details of the family’s income. All requests are strictly confidential. Support per person is limited to $50 a year under most circumstances. Forms are available from the school offices.
